[PATCH 2/4] time: Fix casting issue in timekeeping_forward_now

From: John Stultz
Date: Tue Aug 21 2012 - 20:31:28 EST


From: Andreas Schwab <schwab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

arch_gettimeoffset returns a u32 value which when shifted by tk->shift can
overflow. Cast it to u64 first.

This issue was introduced with 1e75fa8be9fb61e1af46b5b3b176347a4c958ca1
